Anyone Get Their Free At-Home Covid Test Kit Yet?

But could they produce the number needed in the time required ?
Abbott is likely the giant on that list and they couldn't do it.


But companies authorized earlier, like Abbott Laboratories --one of the largest makers of over-the-counter tests — rushed to set up two U.S. factories in three months, instead of the two years it would normally take.


And, several months after its factories got up to speed, cases of COVID began to abate, and with that, and demand for tests in the U.S. plummeted. So Abbott shut down one of its factories and laid off workers. Now Abbott has once again had to switch course as a new surge creates new demand.
Yup. Abbot wound down. It didn’t know Omicron was coming, along with the exponential increase in testing demand it would bring. Nevertheless, carping wingers bash Biden for not knowing Omicron was coming.

FYI, I didn’t mention Trump. You’re suffering from psychotic delusions.
And then, nothing turned itself inside out. Trust us, when "you people tm" bring out an article from NPR (see post 19)

So Abbott shut down one of its factories and laid off workers. Now Abbott has once again had to switch course as a new surge creates new demand.

And you went there:

Yup. Abbot wound down.
But I called you out and you went to the "plausible deniability" and more of the name calling and still you have had no real answer. But the good news is, you don't implement policy and the bad news is those that do now are no smarter than you (Not a compliment).

Don't know.

Yes, the government does sometimes prefer the cheapest version, and that's usually China, since the cost of labor there is minimal.
Actually Chinese labor is not the cheapest anymore, get you facts straight- whoops another right fallacy debunked, 5 YEARS AGO and even higher now

I grant you that the cost of labor has risen in China in recent years.

Do the Chinese workers enjoy the same wage level as a corresponding American worker?

Not yet:

Debunk that.

No wonder you post like the insomniacs. Got any real thought on China providing yer free test kit after they caused this virus by the Obama funded lab?
still pushing that "obama funded" bullshit....

The funding to Eco Health went on until 2020. So if that money was going to Wuhan...for 2017, 2018, 2019 and part of 2020...it was Trump providing the money.

Once those lies get pounded into wingers’ heads they’re there forever.
